Beautify Bannockburn Garden GroupA group of volunteers who are passionate gardeners who have extended their interest to the beatification of the main street of Bannockburn. The group meet each Friday morning, to continue the maintenance of garden beds that line High Street, manicured colourful arrangements for the whole community to enjoy. Volunteers welcome. |
Kindergarten Committees & PlaygroupCouncil operates kindergartens in partnership with volunteer kindergarten committees. While Council is the licensee and employer for the kindergarten, some other aspects of the operation of the kindergarten are undertaken by the volunteer committee. Playgroup is for babies, toddlers and preschoolers and their parents or caregivers. Playgroups are informal, low cost and run by the parents and caregivers in them. Adults stay with their children at playgroup. This gives them the chance to meet other people going through similar experiences and ease the isolation that can come with caring for young children. Kindergarten committees meet every month and there are a range of roles for committee members, including president, secretary, treasurer and fundraising. Playgroups typically meet every week for approximately two hours. |
